~ This gate greets visitors to the Hsi Lai Temple, and spans a wide stairway up to the temple buildings. Looking north, one sees the mountains, the hills of Hacienda Heights, and the beautiful cloudy sky.
Hands of Peace ~ This is a detail of one of the many statues at Hsi Lai Temple. Walking among the gardens, flowers and statues, it was very peaceful and moving. I especially liked the hands and draped effects on this one.
Temple Columns ~ These stately columns frame an outer hallway of the Hsi Lai Temple. I loved the beautiful colors and attention to details.
